Your favorite sports bar

Eight flat screens tuned to the game, naturally! Because this modern Japanese spot is partly owned by San Diego Charger Shaun Philips. He has his own cocktail, the SP 95 (serrano peppers, mint, Corzo Tequila, peach puree, lime juice and simple syrup). Find it for $7 during Katsuya's happy hours (4 to 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. to close).

Home of the Frightening Lightning (a Chargers fan club that bleeds blue and gold). And the oldest bar in town does 50 cent wing nights on Mondays. Become a loyalty card member to win tickets to Chargers home games.

A great chance to keep your glassware and get it refilled with craft beers. As U-T beer expert Peter Rowe explains this neighborhood bar was “named for Herman Hamilton, retired Marine, South Park resident and teetotaler.”
